The guitar is of oriental orgin. lt had reached Spain by the 8th century, presumably via the Arabs, and from there, like the lute, it spread through the rest of Europe. Over the centuries the guitar was further developed into an instrument with four courses of strings - this is evident from early-16th-century tablature-books, the earliest known.
